St Ana Church, built in 1695, is located on the right banks of the Siridao River, at Talaulim village, in South Goa District. Dedicated to St Ana - the grandmother of Jesus Christ, this church is one of the notable examples of baroque structure.

The church is decorated with paintings of palm leaves, tropical fruits and lotus. A distinctive feature of this church is that it has hollow walls through which people could walk in secrecy for the purpose of confession.
